Waste Watch Highlights

  • Instructional Coaches: MSAD 52 spends over $500,000 per year on non-teaching positions with no proven benefit to students.
  • Taxpayer-Funded Degrees: MSAD 52 taxpayers provided financial support for the current Assistant Superintendent’s Master’s and doctoral degrees while she helped develop the Instructional Coach program.
  • Board Conflicts: A sitting MSAD 52 board member is a full-time Literacy/Instructional Coach in Lewiston — creating a clear appearance of conflict on budget votes.
